If you love tropical vacations, cocktails and rhythms but can’t go on vacation this weekend, then the Lula Cuban Fridays parties are the perfect place for you!
Every Friday night we’ll take you and your friends on a vacation to Havana without leaving downtown Toronto! Big salsa bands, DJs, tropical dinner and drinks and the feeling that you are on an island!
This week we have Marta Elena performing! Celebrated for her vocal power and dynamic stage presence, Marta Elena is an accomplished composer, percussionist & bandleader. She belongs to the younger generation of Cuban musicians who honor their country’s Afro-Latin musical roots while seeking new expressions of the musical traditions that course through the veins of the island nation. Having toured internationally with the legendary Cuban group Anacaona and now based in Toronto, Canada, Marta has been invited to perform with Yani Borrell, Conjunto Lacalu and the Juno-winning Cuban jazz pianist Hilario Duran. She and her 11 peice band have been featured at the Lulaworld, Salsa on St. Clair and Latin Sparks festivals.
